Asakusa Temple
Asakusa Sensoji Temple is the oldest and most visited temple around Tokyo. The origin of Asakusa Sensoji Temple dates way back to the 6th century. It is said that in 628, two brothers, the Hinokuma brothers, who were fishing at a river nearby, happened to fish a Buddha statue. The brothers brought the Buddha statue home, rebuilt their home into a temple, and started a temple which later came to be known as Asakusa Sensoji Temple. Asakusa Sensoji Temple is known to bring luck for almost anything: health, studies, love, etc. In front of the main hall of the temple, you will see many people covering themselves with smoke. The smoke they are covering themselves with, is believed to make the part they covered with smoke better. Therefore, many people pat smoke on their head in order to make themselves smarter. Asakusa Sensoji Temple is not just a normal shrine. It has a long path called “Nakamise-dori”, a path jam packed with souvenir stores all along the way to the main hall. You can find anything here: Kimonos, chopsticks, fans, Japanese confectionary, keychains, T-shirts, you name it. Locals tend to buy “Ningyo-yaki”or “Kaminari-Okoshi.” Ningyo-yaki is something like baked pancake dough with red bean paste in it, and Kaminari-Okoshis are Japanese-style rice crispies. The Sensoji Kannon temple is dedicated to Kannon Bosatsu, the Bodhisattva of compassion, and is the most widely visited spiritual site in the world with over 30 million visitors annually.
